A family member of mine has recently moved to the Isle of Man and is wondering if there is any Burnley supporters group on the island. Does anyone know if one exists?

Don't know about that but someone who lives there comes over for the home and some away games (jimmymaccer, I think).

There’s a few Clarets here on The Isle of Man but nothing formal.

Jaks bar on the prom in Douglas shows all Prem league matches live as well as the usual SKY/BT so when the Clarets are playing there’s usually plenty Burnley folk in there……..

Along with the usual Manx who think they’re scousers/Manure ………..

Few of us over here. I know a couple of fellow supporters but no proper group.

I'm in Ramsey, but not really a "group" kinda person.
